Located well inside the Arctic circle this unique nature’s playground offers guaranteed skiing until mid-May.

An adrenaline-charged, awe-inspiring adventure around the distinctively rugged coastlines of Northern Norway’s Lyngen Alps which has been consistently voted one of the best off-piste skiing destinations in the world.
